This is the internet, so you're welcome to post code as you please.
However, be aware that

- if it's on an external site, lots of potential respondants will
  shrug with an "I ain't got time for that" or assume that the
  code-pasting site won't keep the content around (possibly making
  answers useless/contextless in a couple years) and skip it

- if it's inline but too long, lots of potential respondants will
  shrug with an "I ain't got time for that" and skip it, or flame you
  for filling their mailbox with junk

People here on the list generally enjoy helping where they can, but
are more likely to do so if you've made it as easy possible.  So
SSCCEs (as Chris & Jerry mentioned) are your best hope of getting a
useful & friendly reply :-)
